That week I found a leak behind my shower wall by accident

Last month I was just replacing a cracked tile in my master bath near Decatur and noticed the drywall behind it felt a little soft. Turned out there was a slow drip from the shower valve that had been going for maybe 6 months, and I ended up tearing out three sheets of cement board to fix the rot. Has anyone else discovered a hidden water issue while doing something small like a tile repair?

Tore out three sheets" sounds like my DIY projects. I usually turn a tile repair into a full bathroom gut.

Nah, @benflores, sometimes a patch job's the smart play, keeps you from opening a whole can of worms.
